Chapter 587: Chapter 404 Separation and Raid_2
“I didn’t expect you to have received Goddess Fenrir’s blessing. We were hasty in our actions before, and I would like to apologize to you here.”
“It’s a small matter, don’t worry about it.”
Lis waved his hand, not minding the previous attack by Erza and the others.
However, the Cendelle in front of him was indeed different. Now, Lis had disguised his aura with the Shadow Power, unlike the first time he met Cecil.
He even disguised the fluctuations of his Extraordinary Domain.
To others, Lis appeared to be nothing more than a Gold-level Warrior.
Yet, Cendelle had sensed the Goddess’s protective aura, something the silver-clad Elf Guard had completely missed earlier.
Cendelle shook her head and said earnestly:
“You are an esteemed guest of our Elf Clan, and regardless, it was wrong for us to attack you.”
Having said that, Cendelle glanced at Erza, Gardley, and the others standing aside, who quickly lowered their heads, feeling somewhat guilty.
They had truly not expected Lis to have received the Elf Goddess Fenrilya’s blessing. This meant Lis’s actions were affirmed and appreciated by the Goddess herself.
Such a blessing wasn’t permanent. If Lis had indeed been involved in capturing Elves, the blessing would have vanished instantly, followed by the disgust and punishment of the Goddess.
They had mistakenly taken Lis for a member of a Slave Catching Team, which was highly inappropriate.
They heard Lin Xi’s sweet voice reply: “Du Jun, what can I do for you?”
Du Jun answered: “Well, we thought since we’re here, why not go out for a walk, there are a few mountains around. I’ve asked around and there aren’t any dangerous animals or poisonous snakes, it’s very safe. Plus, I heard it’s beautiful on the mountain top where you can see the lights of the ancient town below. I was thinking of inviting everyone for a hike.”
“Going mountain climbing this late?” Judging from the tone, Lin Xi was a bit hesitant, but then the others began to coax her: “Don’t worry, we’ll all go together, looking out for each other. We’ve checked the route, the mountain path is well maintained, it won’t be hard at all.”
Lin Xi said: “That sounds nice, let me ask Gu Fan if he wants to go.”
On hearing this, Gu Fan felt pleased, thinking to himself how considerate his girlfriend was, always wanting to do things together. It proved that he hadn’t been spoiling her in vain.
Du Jun nodded in agreement. He had no reason to refuse.
Soon Lin Xi found Gu Fan and shared the idea of a midnight hike to stargaze. But Gu Fan, considering safety concerns especially right after the earthquake, thought they should be more cautious.
At this, Du Jun was dismissive, considering Gu Fan’s concerns as unnecessary caution, or more bluntly put, cowardice.
That’s why upon realizing her misstep, Daphne felt so apprehensive when she saw Cendelle.
“Hehe, I just wanted to see Sister Cendelle sooner, you know?”
Daphne quickly tugged on Cendelle’s arm, pleading in a cutesy way.
Cendelle had intended to educate Daphne properly since she had been far too bold this time.
But faced with Daphne’s pitiful look, and having not seen her for so long, Cendelle’s heart softened.
“We’ll talk when we get back!”
She had received a message that people from Elf Land had arrived in Jade City, which is why she had ended her patrol early to return.
Even so, Cendelle still planned to address Daphne’s actions later.
Although Goddess Adela had taken precautions with Daphne, ensuring she couldn’t leave the Elf Forest, that was no excuse for Daphne’s reckless wandering.
After all, Daphne held a quite special place among the Moon Elves of Elf Land.
“Lord Lis, I am preparing to take Daphne to Jade City. Would you care to join us on the journey?”
